Photographs of a patient with adenoma of non-pigmented ciliary epithelium diagnosed and treated with partial lamellar sclerouvectomy (Case 1). (a). Slit-lamp biomicroscopy revealed a gray-white, non-pigmented mass located posterior to the iris occupying 4:30 − 9:30 o’clock. Note the bulge in iris ( black arrow) and iris neovasculization inferotemporally (white arrow). (b). Ultrasound biomicroscopy revealed a middle-echoic mass in ciliary body with well-defined boundary. (c). Histopathological examination showed the non-pigmented tumor cells arranged in trabecular and cords were separated by hyaline stroma. Tumor cells were round or polygonal in shape with round nuclei and an abundant vacuolized cytoplasm (magnification, ×400; hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) stain). (d). Anterior segment photograph taken 13 days after partial lamellar sclerouvectomy showed the inferotemporal total iridectomy. (e). A photograph from the surgical video showed local resection of the tumor through a fornix-based scleral fap (arrow). (f-h). Immunohistochemical staining was positive for S-100 (f), vimentin (g), and cytokeratin (h)
